Notes and tests:

  1. Make sure at each station you put a labeled probe in Ch.1 and an unlabled probe in Ch.2.
  2. Open the file "Lab12a.xmbl" in the Class Notes/2216 Setup files/Lab 12 folder. Check that the temperature probes read data.
  3. Open the file "Lab12b.xmbl" in the Class Notes/2216 Setup files/Lab 12 folder. Fully submerge the immersion heater in the water when testing. Failure to do so will break them! In the program create one pulse with the heat pulser and make sure the immersion heater heats up.
  4. Fill the hot water pots with tap water. Don't turn them on until an hour or two before the lab starts.
